Description
When the monochrome paper type command (00) is set, this command is recognized and retained but has no eect.
The monochrome paper selection (usually black) controls the output.
When two-color paper is loaded and the two-color paper type command set, this command will designate which of
the two colors will be used for everything not specied as having (an) explicit color parameter(s) such as color logos,
side bars, surround graphics, background watermarks or color raster graphics.
Exception
After a power loss or reset the default value m=0 is reset.

Range of n: 0 – 255
Default of m, n: 0
Selects a mode for cutting paper and cuts the paper. There are two formats for this command, one requiring one
parameter m, the other requiring two parameters m and n. The format is indicated by the parameter m.
Formulas
n times the vertical motion unit is used to determine the cutting position to which the paper is fed.
